Another great Bukowski collection - his poetry is straightforward and about life in its every sense - the magic and the mundane. I'm a big fan, but he's often a hit or miss for people because of his style and subject matter.

Recently Finished this.....Some great Gems .... His early work.... This is where he started so its a good book for hardcore Buck Fans.Not recommended for someone who is going to read him for the first time.

Ohne ihn persönlich gekannt zu haben ;) würde ich sagen, dass dieser Sammelband einen echten, rohen Bukowski zeigt. Seine Texte in Prosa sind nicht immer einfach zu lesen, wirken holperig zunächst.. aber man wird feststellen, dass sie eine ungeheure Wucht haben. Einsamkeit, Sehnsucht, Wut, Verzweiflung - oft mit wenigen einfachen, oft dreckigen Worten ausgedrückt.Schön gedacht ist der (wohl originale) Satz der Werke mit teilweise nur einem Wort pro Zeile. Leider ist das Druckbild etwas schmierig und unsauber. Liegt wohl am Recyclingpapier auf dem es gedruckt ist.

This is early Bukowski writing, and its brilliant because its not encumbered by his resultant acclaim and popularity, so the poems come straight from the gut and are as honest as they are beautiful and tragic. Definitely worth it.

This collection is one of Bukowski's best. His poem "Dreamlessly" is one of the best poems I have ever read. If you think poetry is only for the highbrow elite, try Bukowski you'll be pleasantly surprised. His work is honest, and often disturbing, but it is very very good. Bukowski's quote on his own work may have said it best (edited so Amazon will post it), "It's not that I'm so f'ing good...it's that everyone else is so f'ing bad." You may decide you wouldn't have liked Bukowski the man, but I'm sure you'll like Bukowski the writer.

I've read several of Buk's books of short stories and poetry, and this is the earliest of Buk's work that I've read. I almost want to say "YUK!"This book has more obvious attempts at style, metaphor... fancy stuff that I'm not used to Buk feeding me. I like his later stuff (e.g., Betting on the Muse; The Prettiest Woman in town).The later stuff is unrelenting. Raw. That's the Buk I've some to love. Burning in Water Drowining in Flame gets distracting with its attempts at being fancy.

Years ago in an eternally hip independent book store, I discovered Charles Bukowski, instantly devouring him like cold noodles on a hot afternoon. I started with "Burning in Water..." and still go back to this one for a feel of what Bukowski truly had to say. In this collection, he combines the sublime with the squalid, giving relevance and imperativeness to all of it. Simply, the man could write about virtually anything. Despite the isolation that permeates throughout the verse, he communicates our need and constant attempts at connection with our fellow human beings. Really folks, its not all just beer and women.

This was my first stab at a Charles Bukowski work and it led me to go out and find out as much as I could about this gifted writer. "Some people" is perhaps the best poem ever, in my opinion. A must for any fan of honest writing.
